With it you can edit 4 primary partitions, period. No logical, no bsd partitions. In other words, it is of very limited utility, in my opinion. A good partitioning tool is still lacking for FreeBSD, able to do at least what Linux cfdisk does so simply. I suppose the geometry problems which plague FreeBSD sysinstall are also present on sfdisk. -- Michel Talon
